Autofac with .NET 6 console app and ServiceCollection

Time:05-28

I am trying to use ServiceCollection with Autofac populating the ServiceCollection in a Console App. I read through the documentation but there is no guide for my specific scenario.

The issue I am facing is that built ServiceCollection does not find the implementation when I ask with interface type. I think AutoFac is not populating the ServieCollection.

Program.cs

using System.Reflection;
using Autofac;
using Autofac.Extensions.DependencyInjection;
using Core.Interfaces;
using Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection;
using Microsoft.Extensions.Logging;


var serviceProvider = new ServiceCollection()
    .AddLogging(cfg => cfg.AddConsole())
    .Configure<LoggerFilterOptions>(cfg => cfg.MinLevel = LogLevel.Information)
    .AddAutofac(cfg =>
    {
        cfg.RegisterAssemblyTypes(Assembly.Load("Core")).AsImplementedInterfaces();
    })
    .BuildServiceProvider();

var markDownParser = serviceProvider.GetRequiredService<IMarkDownParser>();

MarkDownParser.cs

namespace Core;

public class MarkDownParser : IMarkDownParser
{
    private readonly ILogger<MarkDownParser> _logger;

    public MarkDownParser(ILogger<MarkDownParser> logger)
    {
        _logger = logger;
    }
}

IMarkDownParser.cs

namespace Core.Interfaces;

public interface IMarkDownParser
{
    object Parse(string text);
}

Error:

Unhandled exception. System.InvalidOperationException: No service for type 'Core.Interfaces.IMarkDownParser' has been registered.

I think the problem is on AddAutofac extension method only supports during ASP.NET Core 1.1 - 2.2.

This is not for ASP.NET Core 3 or the .NET Core 3 generic hosting support - ASP.NET Core 3 has deprecated the ability to return a service provider from ConfigureServices.

if we want to use autofac to be the DI Container, there is an example to talk about netcore quick-start

Once you've registered everything in the ServiceCollection and call Populate to bring those registrations into Autofac by ContainerBuilder

Final, Creating a new AutofacServiceProvider makes the DI container and we can use that.

var serviceCollection = new ServiceCollection()
    .AddLogging(cfg => cfg.AddConsole())
    .Configure<LoggerFilterOptions>(cfg => cfg.MinLevel = LogLevel.Information);

var containerBuilder = new ContainerBuilder();
containerBuilder.Populate(serviceCollection);
containerBuilder.RegisterAssemblyTypes(Assembly.Load("Core")).AsImplementedInterfaces();
var container = containerBuilder.Build();

var serviceProvider = new AutofacServiceProvider(container);
var markDownParser = serviceProvider.GetRequiredService<IMarkDownParser>();

Documentation says that only use AddAutofac
ONLY FOR PRE-ASP.NET 3.0 HOSTING. THIS WON'T WORK FOR ASP.NET CORE 3.0 OR GENERIC HOSTING.

Since .net 6 has been tagged. I'm thinking the framework is part of the issue.

Here is my implementation as well as some documentation to help.
https://autofac.readthedocs.io/en/latest/integration/aspnetcore.html

// Main

using Autofac;
using Autofac.Extensions.DependencyInjection;
using Core;
using Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection;
using Microsoft.Extensions.Hosting;
using Microsoft.Extensions.Logging;
using System.Reflection;

using IHost host = Host.CreateDefaultBuilder(args)
.UseServiceProviderFactory(new AutofacServiceProviderFactory())
.ConfigureContainer<ContainerBuilder>(builder =>
{
    builder.RegisterAssemblyTypes(Assembly.Load("Core")).AsImplementedInterfaces();
})
.Build();

var markDownParser = host.Services.GetRequiredService<IMarkDownParser>();
Console.WriteLine(markDownParser);

// Core Assembly

using Microsoft.Extensions.Logging;

namespace Core
{
    public interface IMarkDownParser
    {
        object Parse(string text);
    }

    public class MarkDownParser : IMarkDownParser
    {
        private readonly ILogger<MarkDownParser> _logger;

        public MarkDownParser(ILogger<MarkDownParser> logger)
        {
            _logger = logger;
        }

        public object Parse(string text)
        {
           throw new NotImplementedException();
        }
    }
}
